Catalyst+:six weeks to AI delivering value in your business

6 WEEKS · FIXED SCOPE · FIXED FEE

Catalyst+ is Transformativ's AI transformation product, for Australian enterprises in financial services and other regulated, complex sectors. Define is a fixed six-week sprint. It ends with a board-ready blueprint and a costed value case for where AI pays first, and where the scope is focused, AI agents already live and delivering. Activate puts the blueprint into live operation, and Scale rolls it out in waves, with value measured from day one.

In six weeks: a redesigned organisation, the blueprint to get there, the technology and information architecture it needs, the design of the AI agents that will support it, and a costed value case for where AI pays first. Where the opportunity is focused, the first AI agents are already doing real work. Where the change spans the enterprise, the foundations are in place to activate it area by area. Then AI live, with value measured from day one, and scaled by your own people.

THE GAP

The value from AI comes from changing the work.

Boards are approving AI budgets and pilots are launching, but few organisations know where the real value is. Tools on their own deliver modest gains, because the work around them stays the same. Catalyst+ starts with your work and your people, then designs the AI around them.

AI ASSISTANTS ALONEWITH PROCESS CHANGE

In software development, AI assistants alone lift productivity 10 to 15%. Paired with end-to-end process change, some companies report 25 to 30%. That gap is what Catalyst+ closes.

What happens in the six weeks

WEEK 1WEEK 6: AI DELIVERING VALUE
  1. WEEKS 1 TO 2ALIGN

    WEEKS 1 TO 2 | ALIGN

    Agree the focus and its boundary. Baseline your AI readiness, value, effort and AI spend today. We agree whether the first scope is focused or enterprise-wide. Align leadership on the target and what success looks like.

    BY WEEK 2

    Leadership aligned on the target, with today's value, effort and AI spend baselined.

  2. WEEKS 3 TO 4DISCOVER

    WEEKS 3 TO 4 | DISCOVER

    Work directly with the people who do the work. Classify every task: automate, augment or preserve. Surface where the friction and the value sit.

    BY WEEK 4

    Every task has a verdict (automate, augment or preserve), and you know where the value sits.

  3. WEEKS 5 TO 6DESIGN

    WEEKS 5 TO 6 | DESIGN

    Design the target operating model, redesigned roles, agent and technology stack, measurement framework and activation plan. Where the scope is focused, the first AI agents go live alongside the design, with your people reviewing every output.

    BY WEEK 6

    The redesigned organisation, the blueprint, the technology and information architecture, the design of the build and agents, and a costed value case, ready for the board. Where focused, AI agents already live.

WHO IT'S FOR

Built for leadership teams with an AI agenda and no clear line of sight to value

Catalyst+ suits CEOs, COOs, CIOs, CTOs and heads of data or AI whose organisations have trialled tools across the business, but can't yet show where the investment is paying off. It works in regulated environments, where accuracy, accountability and audit carry weight, and it is platform-independent: the work decides the technology.

The blueprint is built for the board: a clear answer on where AI will create value, what it will take, and how the return will be measured.

HOW WE THINK

Three things that make Catalyst+ different

When people design the future, they don't fear it. They own it.

  1. 01

    Start with the enterprise and its work

    We begin with how the work gets done, before any platform decision.

  2. 02

    Every task gets a verdict

    Automate, augment or preserve, judged on where AI adds value and where people should stay in charge.

  3. 03

    The people who do the work help design it

    The teams whose roles change help shape what replaces them.

Governance is designed in Define, goes live in Activate and extends to each new area in Scale, and our AI governance consulting page sets out the controls, records and escalation behind it.

QUESTIONS

Common questions about Catalyst+

Catalyst+ is Transformativ's AI transformation product. It runs in three stages: Define, a fixed six-week sprint that ends with a board-ready blueprint and a costed value case, with AI agents already live where the scope is focused; Activate, which puts that blueprint into live operation, typically over 8 to 12 weeks; and Scale, which rolls it out across the organisation in waves.

At the end of the six weeks: a redesigned organisation, the blueprint to get there, the technology and information architecture it needs, the design of the build and the agents, and a costed value case. Where the scope is focused, AI agents are already live on your real work. Activate then puts AI live against that value case, and Scale extends it, run by your own people.

Define takes six weeks and ends with a board-ready blueprint and a costed value case. Where the scope is focused on a team or process, AI agents are live on your real work by week 6, with your people reviewing every output. Activate then puts AI into live operation across the wider scope, typically over 8 to 12 weeks, and Scale extends it in waves.

Your people help design what happens to their roles. Every task gets a verdict: automate, augment or preserve. The people who do the work help design what replaces it, so each affected role gets a defined future, redesigned with the person who holds it. People stay in charge wherever their judgement matters, and accountability for every decision stays with a named person.

Usually where the work is well understood, the volume is high, and the value can be measured, such as an operations or service function, because the result there can be measured against a clear baseline. We agree the starting point with your leadership before the six weeks start.

A strategy engagement usually ends with a recommendation. Catalyst+ ends its first six weeks with a costed value case and, where the scope is focused, AI agents already live, and the same team then puts it into live operation and helps scale it.

Yes. Catalyst+ is platform-independent: the blueprint decides what the work needs, then we recommend the technology that fits your environment, existing investments and risk settings. It is built for regulated environments, where accuracy, accountability and audit carry weight, and AI governance is designed in from the first six weeks so controls and records are in place before agents go live.

Define is a fixed-scope, fixed-fee engagement, scoped to your organisation and the area you choose to start with. Activate and Scale are sized to the work they cover, area by area, once Define has set out the blueprint and the costed value case. We agree the scope, the team and the fee with you before anything starts.
